Cute!! This might be a dumb question, but I'll ask anyways. When you have a bento box with like fruit in one compartment and rice in another compartment, how do you heat it up? Do you take out the fruit, heat the box, and put the fruit back in? Or is the bento box just a carrying case and when you heat up the food it just goes onto a separate plate? I'd like to start bringing these to work. CUTENESS FOR LUNCH.

p.s. MAN I am so hungry right now!

Generally, I don't heat up my bento before I eat it. Almost everything I pack tastes good at room temperature. If I have a particular meal that I really want to eat hot, I will use a microwaveable bento (more tupperware-like). And I will remove anything from the bento that I don't want to heat before I do it.

Whew! That was a mouthful!

Hello, lurker! I just got the kewpie mayo this past weekend and it is so yummy! Thanks for the encouragement!

Hey! I was wondering why eggs are usually included in bento meals? I have never bothered to ask anyone, but thought about it often.

Again, you have made another gorgeous creation! I admire your skill!

mmmbento March 17 2006, 03:46:57 UTC

I am not sure actually. I do it because I like them, they're a good source of protein, and they taste good at room temperature. :)

And thank you!

hahaha, the cute little egg guy made me laugh when i saw it. People eat way too much spam (notice it's not even referred to as a brand) and vienna sauage here. They seem to be living alright. But yea, it's not a good thing to make processed meat a regular diet...wait it out, probably especially for stomaches not used to it.

mmmbento March 17 2006, 03:50:49 UTC

Hee hee. The egg guy created himself this morning. And I am definitely not spamming again for a little while. ;)
